For the petrol heads

David Coulthard in a Merc SLS AMG (we all want one don't we... ) takes on the famous (infamous) Isle of Man TT course.
He/they wanted to hit 155mph or more. The public road was closed, no cones were put in place to "ease" the speeds, and he drove the reverse route (the down hill bit)

Compare it to this guy.. A "normal" guy on a 3 year old bike. He only hit 170mph... I say "only" because around the 6 minute mark another guy went overtook him as if the camera guy was on a Sunday stroll.
